Publish java-spiffe-helper to Maven Central

I was struggeling yesterday to configure a CI pipeline to build java-spiffe-helper from source. Are there any reasons why this artifact is not built and published to Maven Central from this repository? Seems like "the missing piece of the puzzle": https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:io.spiffe

Hi @erikgb, it's not in the maven central repo because it was not thought to be used as maven or gradle dependency but as a standalone jar, and the jar was published on Github: https://github.com/spiffe/java-spiffe/releases, built for Linux (https://github.com/spiffe/java-spiffe/releases/download/v0.6.2/java-spiffe-helper-0.6.2-linux-x86_64.jar) and for MacOS (https://github.com/spiffe/java-spiffe/releases/download/v0.6.2/java-spiffe-helper-0.6.2-osx-x86_64.jar).

@maxlambrecht Thanks, that makes sense. I wasn't aware of the release artifacts. Closing issue.

Should we document something to this effect in the readme?

I'll add it to the README, thanks @evan2645
